Your Plan, to "UNPLUG" YOU - What's the worst that could happen?

In line with London School of Business & Finance's objective to provide industry leading learning opportunities, LSBF is proud to partner Worldwide Business Solutions (New Zealand) to present 4 signature programmes based on the unique "4-Pillar Methodology" developed by WWBS Founder, Dr Luuk van Breda, to help participants achieve personal competency for improved performance and productivity.

Please contact Laurence Khoo at 65807341 or email at lkhoo@lsbf.edu.sg to customise a programme to realise your organisation's goals.

This unique programme is suitable for those who want to establish a disciplined approach to eliminate overflow of information that overwhelms them and unplug themselves from their gadgets. Participants will learn how and when to "power-down" and what tools they can use to focus on what really matters and get more out of life.

Objectives

What should set the tone and promise of a day? How to be better focused, more creative and positive? How to use meditation, writing skills, use entertainment and books and become inspired by other people? All of us need to unplug. Too often, we feel overwhelmed by our gadgets - always connected to email but perhaps not adequately to our personal life. It's time to take a break. Let the detoxing begin.

Course Duration

2 days, 10am – 5pm / 14 hours

Course Outcomes

How would participants want to unplug in order to recharge and how to build the discipline to create the space necessary to find what will/could be next.

When we are constantly overwhelmed with sound bites, we are not allowed to discover what we are capable of or who we are. How powering-down for a period of time provides the opportunity to reset and re-focus and thus gain appreciation and gratitude for the lives we have been given.

How to lead others to create a sustainable future? Participants learn to teach their teams how to unplug and thus cultivate fluid organizations; first you need to lead yourself.

When we need to connect regularly, it is our obligation to recharge every day. How our world does not need more consuming. It needs more creating. It needs your passion, your solution, and your unique contribution. And how to begin contributing to a better world because of it.
